Item Preview
122 pages ; 22 cm
The world recognizes that Albert Einstein, the outstanding scientist of the twentieth century, was fifty years ahead of his time. These Essays in Humanism (1931-1950) are more relevant today than when he conceived them. We feel privileged to offer them to the public with hardly any editorial change - a moving document of the workings of a conscientious, profound, and deeply humane mind
